Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

From day one, Dr. Sweet showed concern about the number of years he had been trying without having any positives, he was very clear and clears up a lot of unknowns to finally arrive at the long-awaited and desired positive. From day one I was inspired by great trust and total sincerity, his staff is very friendly and empathetic to every part of the process, in my specific case that I only speak Spanish it was never an impediment in any of the consultations nurse Michell Guzmán was always there to help me and was very kind, today we are very happy and Excited by our positive and looking forward to our Sweet100 babies

Best doctor!!!
My husband and I choose to go to Dr. Sweet for a second opinion after 3 failed embryo transfers with another doctor in Naples. It was the best decision we ever made! Everyone is dr. Sweets office is so friendly and treat you so warmly. Dr. Sweet is such a knowledgeable doctor and very professional. Our first appointment he spent over a hour and a half with us just to hear our timeline, history and concerns. That was our first big impression and he never disappointed. He’s very straight forward and when he thought I would be a good candidate for a natural embryo transfer (one I never was offered before with my past doctor) I decided to trust his medical background and expertise and try it. And I’m so thankful I did. I can happily say my first embryo transfer with dr. sweet was a success and I am now 11weeks pregnant!!! I’m so thankful to Dr. Sweet and his wonderful staff I even told him he better not think of retiring anytime soon! So I can go back to him for future pregnancies!!

Intelligent Doctor !!
The lovely staff from the start was nothing but kind and helpful. Every visit we had we felt very welcomed. Dr. Sweet from the start did not sugar anything . He was very honest which we appreciated. We have been trying to become pregnant for 4 years and someone we know recommended Dr. Sweet about 5 months ago and I quickly made an appointment. We are happy to say that we are 10 weeks pregnant! We are so thankful to Dr. Sweet !

Dr. Sweet was honest, upfront, and made sure to go over everything with us. When we had questions we were able to come in and sit down with him and go through everything together. He made us feel seen and heard especially when going over our options and not forcing us to do something we did not want to do. We felt like we had a great plan in place and everything worked out perfectly. His team was great as well! You can tell it takes a fully knowledgeable team to keep everything on track especially when egg retrievals are done on the weekend and nothing stands in the way. After graduating at 8 weeks Dr. Sweet was so happy for us - hugged me - and I felt like he really cared and was so happy to have help us get to where we were at especially after I cried several times in his office when the process of fertility makes you feel defected. He made it known that if I ever needed anything or had any issues to contact him and his office and he would be sure to see me asap. I felt like his offi

We can not thank Dr. Sweet enough!!!
My husband and I had a challenging fertility issue but with Dr. Sweet’s intervention we now have a baby girl! Dr. Sweet is very knowledgeable and thorough regarding fertility and IVF. Dr. Sweet and his staff put together a medical plan that resulted in a successful pregnancy on the first IVF attempt. We can not thank Dr. Sweet enough! I would 100% recommend Dr. Sweet to anyone with fertility issues.

Dr Sweet knows a lot about fertility. He would come in to review ultrasounds after the MA and show you more than the MA could/did. He took the proper steps to appropriately diagnose any unexplained infertility.

Amazing Surgeon
Dr. Sweet is amazing! He is very thorough & completely transparent. He does not do/recommend anything without telling you the ups and downs of EVERYTHING. He’s knowledgeable & his staff is amazing as well. All of the ladies are super nice. I had to undergo a huge procedure and was extremely nervous. He made me feel comfortable with putting my life in his hands. He has great bedside manner and is very personable. What I like most about him is that he gives it to you straight. He does not tell you what you want to hear, but what you NEED to hear. He knows what he is doing and is completely comfortable in his skill. I would recommend him a million times over. He changed my life & I’m super grateful to have had him as my surgeon.

My husband and I have had 4 miscarriages and no one could figure out the problem, until we were referred to Dr. Sweet. After being misdiagnosed and on unnecessary medications Dr. Sweet figured out the issue right away. I am currently 14 weeks pregnant and could be more thankful for the care we received from his office. Him and his entire staff are exceptional. Dr. Sweet is very knowledgeable, passionate, and caring. I truely believe he is the best at what he does . The nurses are kind, helpful, and informative. Pam, our clinical coordinator was absolutely fantastic to deal with in every way possible. They were always on time and answered any questions right away. IVF is a stressful process but because we chose Dr. Sweet, I feel like we had the best or smoothest experience possible. We cannot thank them enough.

My husband and I have been trying to get pregnant for three years without any help...obviously did not work. My regular OBGYN suggested Dr. Sweet. He told me that Dr. Sweet is the best in town and now we know why. We are currently 8weeks 5days pregnant. He knows his stuff...he is very straight forward and gives his honest opinion and solutions and if you follow them you will get pregnant.

My visit to Dr. Sweets office was terrible. Not only did this provider run late to my appointment, he was nearly 2 hours late. Dr. Sweet brought me into his office to go over some imaging results then proceeded to pass judgement on me. I then asked him a simple question and he made me feel as if I was not competent. The staff at this office is completely unorganized and unprofessional. I have now went nearly 2 years without care for my medical issue, all I wanted was some direction for my treatment..... I left Dr. Sweets office crying on the day of my appointment...Not only did I waste time and money I also felt incredibly belittled by this unprofessional provider. I will never recommend this office to anyone. I should have left his practice an informed patient but now I just feel disgust for the way this man continues to treat his patients.

Dr. Sweet and staff were amazing. They helped us navigate through a scary and unknown time. Dr. Sweet is knowledgeable, concise, and funny ( in a dry sense of humor way). He takes a very direct path to get you to your end game. I believe that his honesty and directness allowed us to make an informed decision and we are honored to be one of the couples that he has helped conceive a child. We recommend any person who is interested in having a baby, reach out to him.

I do not recommend this Dr. for multiple reasons. The staff is terrible and has repeatedly violated my hippa rights. Dr. Sweet also doesn't like his patients to question him. The office still has one of my embryos as well that has b3een refused to be transferred into me. Anyone who knows this process knows the cost and I was told that if I wanted MY embryo I had to pay another facility an additional cost to get it.

Dr. Sweet is brilliant. He was able to diagnose an issue my regular gyno was unable to, but also found other fertility issues that hadn't been addressed before. He basically saved my fighting chance at having kids before it was too late!

Love Dr. Sweet! Infertility is such a tough journey and I always left his office feeling he had my back. At the end of the day, that was really comforting. We did IVF with him and he also preformed surgery to treat my endometriosis. I always felt very cared for and that I was in good hands. He does have a sarcastic sense of humor so even if I had a nice hormonal cry in office, I would also have a good laugh!
